I'd Like It to Be Me - Paul Otten

brush me off

but i’ll be back

your runaway talk

well it is just that

you try to outrun your ghosts

you say i couldn’t possibly know

but i know

you need someone

i bet you know

you need someone

well i’m standing right here

got my heart wide open

i’d like it to be me

if you need someone

i’d like it to be me

don’t go it alone

it’s a long enough road

i’d like it to be me

if you need someone

i’d like it to be me

well there’s not a soul

that hasn’t felt lost

but a little hope

can fend the pain off

well everybody’s got their own pain

i ain’t that naive

but i know

we all need someone

and i bet you know

we all need someone

well i’m standing right here

with my heart wide open

i’m standing right here

with my heart wide open

and if you need someone

i’d like it to be me

oh if you need someone

i’d like it to be me
